to Sparkpeople! With or without bariatric surgery, it all comes down to the same thing. Controlling what goes into our mouths and what we do with our bodies. Here is alink to 26 bariatric surgery teams. You should be able to find people here that are encountering the same challenges that you are.

Hi I am Ann and this is my first time being on anything like this. I have finally gotten to the point I really needed help at almost 250 lbs I got a vsg (vertical sleeve gastrectomy) I have lost a total of 18 lbs. and I am only 6 days post op and nervous as all heck. I am so afraid my food addictions and habits are going to over power me. I come from a large italian family and food is our thing. I have made it six days no food tomorrow I start on yogurt and applesauce. I am in it for the long haul and hope to meet a few new friends and get help and support along the way.
